Just one more reason why Memphis Music rules <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/wcPe4ale96U" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/LjJEypYh3rw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/U32SrCvlAPU" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/-AizWO6UNok" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/w6rMvOIrNhU" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/WvHBXRRqGgU" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
It feels like Paul Kinsey started this thread. I was taking a commuter for a visit with Murphy Oil in Arkansas, and there was no visibility so they had to land in Memphis. Other than the Holiday Inn in Evansville, Indiana, that was the worst hotel I've ever stayed in.
You probably should have stayed at the peabody then. I mean does houston even have a hotel that is as famous as the peabody?
I would have hoped the Warwick in its former state. The Shamrock was mismanaged from the start and busted with McCarthy's fortune. The Four Seasons down here is pretty solid.
A guy excitedly and generously shares a tiny fraction of the great music that relates to Memphis and some goon stops what he's doing and jumps in to b**** about a Memphis hotel stay on an oil company junket while name checking a character from a lame tv show. This, friends, is an unmistakable symptom of a dying society. Or an instance of sad, artless self-absorption. Both, though, I think.
Our favorite vacation destination is Memphis, and while the Stax (especially), Sun and Ardent studios are awesome to tour through, it is a shame the same can't be said for Hi. It's basically an abandoned building that you have to ask around to find your way to. Greatest drum sound, ever.
